Hey Occultus,
interesting videos. Where did you make them?
However, I think both of your identification are flawed. Even though it's impossible to see details on the first video, I'm pretty sure it's not Diacamma, they don't do this group recruitment. If it was a ponerine ant (which I'm not even sure), this is probably Leptogenys.
I'm not sure about the ants in the second video either, but I'm sure this is not Carebara - the workers are too big and also monomorph.
Greetings, Phil

Hey Occultus,
1. Video: Likely Paratrechina
2. Video: Anoplolepis gracilipes (not Camponotus)
3. Video: Not sure, can't see much. However the trail reminds me of Dolichoderus sp.
4. Video: Dunno

Here you will find videos of ants that I discover whilst I'm out on my travels.

Hi Phil,
Thanks for the reply, I filmed these in Cambodia.
I think your right about me misidentifying these species. 
Leptogenys are common throughout Northern Cambodia so that is a likely candidate.
The smaller workers really through me off because of their small size and large foraging trails. During that evening I did spot a few Carebara soldiers and thus I've jumped to conclusions.
Thanks for correcting me and I shall amend the videos shortly
P.S I'm flying back out to Cambodia on Thursday morning so hopefully I can acquire more footage soon.

Your just too good Phil 
I never would have guessed that the ants in the second video weren't a Camponotus. Anoplolepis gracilipes on google images looks identical.
Thanks again for the Idents, rename coming right up!
